All true points but its starting to make me think some of the Title fights lately are thrown. Like when franklin lost last month he minds well of stood there and took it in the butt. Now this. I think they wanna give the titles a chance to pass hands. Now if liddel loses to ortiz next month ill be pised71swing said:Tape, what is a tape.
Thats to bad, He was starting to get a little cocky.
Still think he is a great fighter and will get his belt back in the rematch. But defending his title and always winning was making his head big. this will bring him back down to earth and make him a even better fighter.
They just both semmed like they lacked the fire that drives the non title holders.Speeds8erM-1 said:Not unprepared, just flat out OUTMATCHED. There are PLENTY of people in other fighting orgs that would destroy Franklin and at least one or two out there that would hand it to Hughes (Gomi would have a good shot at it IMO).
Hughes has been rocked like that before, he got flash KO'd by Pele years ago. He has evolved ALOT as a fighter since then but the 170 class is a DEEP division and he couldnt expect to win forever I guess.

Pierre Caught him in the sack twice in this fight. And alite that fight is DEC 30th otiz Liddel 2... I cant wait for that.Danman765432 said:Oh i didnt know that he got rocked that before...the only other time that i would say he was rocked was when he fought Triggs and Triggs caught him in the nuts and took advantage... But Pierre would have had hughes knocked out in the first round with that perfectly placed punch to the forehead....Did you see the mark it left?
I think maybe it will be a wake up call that he isnt indestructible like franklin, and they will both train harder and comeback and make it an awesome fight for round 3..rigamaroles said:When it comes to his feet, hughes is a bum. Anyone with any striking game can pick him apart on his feet. If it comes down to grappling, its his territory, and thats about all hes got. GSP beat the snot out of him, and halted his take down attempts. Hes a better fighter. I've been waiting 2 years to see that fight again, and I believe that Matt Hughes doesnt have a chance to get it back. Hughes is an ignorant egomaniacal douchebag.
